This video of a 'Zara boycott' is unrelated to war in Gaza • FRANCE 24 English
Fashion giant Zara is facing a heavy backlash and calls for a boycott over its latest ad campaign that resembles the destruction in Gaza. Some users are sharing an unrelated video to this boycott, that they claim shows "American people throwing all their Zara clothes in front of the company". We tell you where this video really comes from in this edition of Truth or Fake.

The protesters did not really "storm" the store😅. They were actually walking calmly in, but the footage shown was played fast forward! Look carefully, and you can see.

Agree with you. Never
Oct 2023 is not the first time Israelis killed thousands of Palestinians. I remember in 2014 and other years later when Israel bombed buildings and killed thousands , similar to now but the numbers didn't get this high since there was no "holocaust like event" that they could use to kill this many ppl. So, Zara could still have based it on this conflict, just the previous part of it in 2014, 2020, etc. Israel "mows the grass" (kills Palestinians) every few years, as the images would have been similar and could have acted as inspiration for this ad. I wasn't convinced Zara did this ad to mock Palestinians; I thought perhaps they wanted to draw attention to their plight w/o being called antisemitic by Israel, but after seeing all the other things in previous years they mentioned, I no longer think it was benign.
People don’t fall for it Zara is lying now
Even without this ad, we would boycott zara
Boycott it all... the people have the power.

I have a background in advertising, and I'm familiar with the meticulous planning that goes into campaigns well in advance. It's crucial to consider every aspect to ensure that no sentiments are unintentionally hurt. However, the recent Zara campaign, despite being well-executed with Mumbai in mind, is a deeply regrettable and inhumane act. Such actions are disheartening, especially in so-called civilized countries.
We can find out if Marks & Spencer incident is unfortunate or not just by finding out who did their ad campaign*

For example in Australia they made a Christmas ham and shortened it and HAMAS was written on it. Nobody started boycotting the shop. Everyone makes mistakes and not everything is made on purpose. These,boycotts are barbaric and violent. It could be done in an intelligent way but this behaviour is childish. Civilised people don't behave this way.
